Daddy, Come Home For Dinner!

Chapter 1127: Chapter 1127: Does the School Really Need This Income?

Family members coming along is still okay.

Even Guo Wenbo and Ye Huasong showed up.

That’s still fine, they did form a mentor-like friendship during the Changping Competition.

But now, Zhao Guoxian also came.

Oh well.

Zhao Guoxian barely counts as family too.

Ye Fei couldn’t help but say, "Are you all planning to go in with me?"

"My brother doesn’t need to go in; he’s not part of the school, so it’s not appropriate," Zhao Guoxian declared boldly.

Zhao Gushen: "..."

He thought he’d get a position or a title in the school.

This way, he could openly stay by Ye Fei’s side.

He wouldn’t just be there as a family member.

Zhao Gushen pondered it and found the idea quite feasible.

Homeroom teacher: "..."

The homeroom teacher looked at Zhao Guoxian with a complicated expression.

Thinking, is it appropriate for you to go in?

Speaking of which, Ye Fei’s timing wasn’t really great.

It happened to be right before the holidays.

The little one’s kindergarten holidays started earlier than regular schools, so his break had already begun.

But Changping Academy would also start holidays in two weeks.

After the semester ends, the final selection for the International Cooking Competition slots would formally begin.

The selection would be decided within a week.

Then, they’d begin setting off with the team.

The contestants guarding the fortress would have to stay at the school during the break.

This way, it wouldn’t interrupt their normal semester learning.

But unfortunately, Ye Fei was late, but since all the procedures were already handled.

So, Ye Fei had to participate in the final exams too.

Even as an auditor, she had to take the exams and her scores would be included in the ranking with the formal students.

The bottom 10 of the grade would have to repeat the year.

Actually, this was an idea brought up by Zhao Guoxian.

Before Zhao Guoxian became the principal, Changping Academy didn’t have this rule.

The condition for repeating was simply failing grades.

There was a fixed passing score line.

But after Zhao Guoxian became the principal, to motivate students’ progress and continuously spur them.

He abolished the scoreline.

Directly making the bottom 10 in each grade repeat the year.

No one wants to repeat; it’s too shameful.

So everyone was motivated to improve their abilities.

But no matter how much they improved, some would still fall into the bottom ten.

In this way, everyone’s ability overall was on the rise.

Being in the bottom ten doesn’t mean bad performance.

It just means there are others performing even better.

If you don’t want to fall behind, you have to keep working hard.

Therefore, each year, there would be 10 people repeating.

There’s no case where everyone advances to the next grade.

However, Ye Fei suspected that one of Zhao Guoxian’s important reasons for doing this was to collect more tuition fees.

With only 10 in each grade, over four grades, it’d be 40 people in total.

Some might never graduate.

No one wants to work hard for so many years and end up without even a graduation certificate.

Anyway, the number of people repeating each year is fixed.

So is the additional tuition income!

And indeed, Ye Fei guessed right.

What Ye Fei didn’t know was that Zhao Guoxian’s father, always carefree and unconcerned about earning money, Zhao Dinglian, even asked Zhao Guoxian with some distress, "Does the school need this bit of income?"

Does the Zhao Family lack this bit of money?

For the sake of making just a little bit more money, where’s your conscience?

Unexpectedly, Zhao Guoxian righteously stated, "Even fly legs are meat; if we can earn a bit more, why not?"

Incidentally, Zhao Guoxian’s regulation made Changping Academy students’ culinary skills advance by leaps and bounds, with each student more dedicated than the last.

Tuition fees are a minor issue, families aren’t short of that bit of money, but we can’t afford to lose face.

The students’ excellent learning results made even their elders proud.

Even more convinced that Changping Academy was a good school.

Zhao Guoxian’s regulation was a good one.

Nobody thought Zhao Guoxian merely wanted to make more money.

Returning to the topic.

Ye Fei joined at this time.

The homeroom teacher felt her final exam results would probably be at the bottom.

And she’d have to repeat the year.

It would be better to start in September with the new first-year students, having the same learning pace.

With Ye Fei’s cooking skills, she should be able to advance smoothly.

However, since Ye Fei had already come, the homeroom teacher didn’t say anything more.

"Isn’t it a bit much for all of you to come with me?" Ye Fei said, "Won’t it look like I’m pulling lots of strings and acting special, which isn’t great?"

From a psychological standpoint, the classmates would want to reject her first.

"No problem; at Changping Academy, students always rely on strength to speak. As long as you suppress them with strength, no one dares to mess with you," Zhao Guoxian said, "Sister-in-law, I’m confident in your abilities."

"But, students aren’t very polite to auditing students. If we go together, they’ll know there’s someone in school to hold them back. Even if they dislike you at first, they won’t dare to make things hard for you. Otherwise, they’re all a bunch of troublemakers and won’t care whose family you’re from. Auditors have been ridiculed quite a bit," Zhao Guoxian said.

Ye Fei didn’t expect such a serious disdain chain existed in Changping Academy.

"But, you’re on good terms with Tian Pengpo and the others; no one will dare mess with you with them around." Zhao Guoxian didn’t mention Zhao Gushen.

Zhao Gushen being far away, his name carried no weight in the school.

Especially here, a big group of students at a hot-blooded age, always "unafraid of authority," anyone arrogant due to their background would only provoke more backlash.

Thus, as Ye Fei came in, she was just like any other student.

No one would think of Zhao Gushen behind her.

Of course, Ye Fei didn’t plan to use Zhao Gushen’s name for anything either.

However, she frowned and said, "This kind of disdain chain isn’t good, right? Even as auditors, they’ve entered through official procedures, paid what they should, perhaps even more. They come to learn more and improve themselves. Anyone making an effort to progress shouldn’t be looked down on and bullied."

"That’s true, but can you reason with a bunch of teenagers? Every family has rebellious kids," Zhao Guoxian shook his head helplessly.

Ye Fei: "..."

You’re not that much older.

Xiao Mo protested, "I’m not rebellious. I’m well-behaved."

Zhao Guoxian looked down at the little bean: "You haven’t reached the rebellious age yet."

"I won’t be rebellious when I grow up," the little one immediately said, "I don’t bully anyone."

Zhao Guoxian: "..."

True, the exclusion of auditing students is just bullying.
